Today was the last day Jordan Bowl, Aurora, North Peak and South Ridge were open. Probably a good thing, the snow was getting sparse in some sections but still great skiing. Conditions were firm up until 2 pm or so then the snow softened up just a little but not too much. Sunday River wants to stay open until May 1st, this should be doable provided temps are below freezing every night for the next couple of weeks and there is not an extended heat wave. Had a lot of fun, conditions still really good.

Nice pics. We were there this weekend too. There are still a lot of fun turns to be had, but you can tell it's winding down. Certain spots are getting thin. I think I might have gotten the last run of the season on Shockwave yesterday.

For me personally, this weekend helped me accept the impending end of this ridiculous season. It's still been a lot of fun. We'll get em next year.

I was there Thursday in the rain. Some parts looked to have melted more since then / because of the rain event. Quite sad. Barker, Locke, White Cap, and even Spruce look fine here though. If temperatures stay like this I could see them making May 1, if not May 1 then the week before for sure.

Sat was a really good day. I thought Excalibur may have skied the best it had all year. Black hole and Vortex were sweet
I quit early yesterday, hit Spruce, Right stuff was nice as well as Upper Vortex. I quit early and did not wait out the Wind holds.
